Launch: Sony Xperia Z1 (Honami) Android 4.3

Till now, the device which was known as Xperia Honami is launching soon under the name Xperia Z1 powered by Jelly Bean Android (version 3.4). With too much of  leaked news and  ongoing rumors have confirmed that Sony is working on it and is launching Sony Xperia Z1 on September 4, 2013.

Resemblance of Sony XPeria Z1 Honami – Z One


The previous device launched by Sony was the Xperia Z Ultra.  it had the Snapdragon 800 chipset which offered 2.2GHz of super speed (Snapdragon 800 which will be a quad core processor clocked at 2.2GHz). The review and response of Xperia Z Ultra came out good and now Sony is going to use the same CPU again in the Xperia Z1. And definitely the response of Xperia Z1 will also be comparable to Xperia Z Ultra.

Sony Xperia Z1 Specifications

The design of SONY Xperia Z1 will remain same as that of Z, but the chasis of Xperia Z1 will be different as it will be made of some metal, which wasn’t the case with Z.

This  metal chassis will increase the antenna by one, just like iPhone 5 and definitely  the receiving quality of the network will be increased. Metal chassis will also add extra strength to the device. That is the device will have stronger strength.

Rumors are confirming that Xperia Z1 is going to feature 5 inch display with full HD resolution. The display is going to be the same as of Z and will be running on Sony’s Bravia mobile engine. Another good thing to come in display of Xperia Z1 is the X-Reality enhancer feature which will definitely bring out changes in quality of the display.As I mentioned earlier that the processor is going to be Snapdragon 800 which will be a quad core processor clocked at 2.2GHz. There will be 2GB of RAM and 16GB of internal storage. The device will also be having storage expansion option supporting microSD card of maximum 64GB size.

Camera and Lens

Next big thing in Xperia Z1 will be the rear camera. It is expected that Sony is going to bring its G lens (used in high range Sony DLSRs) into the Xperia for the first time and the rear lens is going to have 20MP sensor.Sony is also going to introduce the new “lens camera” with the device which can be added up to the Xperia Z1 to increase functionality of device as camera. The front camera is supposed to come with 2.2MP sensor.

The LTE is definitely going to be there along with dual band Wi-Fi, Bluetooth (4.0), NFC, Infra red and the TV out and microUSB ports.

One big question which is still putting geeks in confusion is which version of Jelly Bean will be there in the device when it gets launched. Well, Jelly Bean 4.2.2 will be definitely there but it will be better if it comes with Jelly Bean 4.3.

Sony has already got victory with their Stamina mode in battery life in Xperia Z and Z Ultra and now Sony will carry on the same in the Z1 for sure which means battery life is going to be good.

Sony Xperia Z1 launch

So this was all you about Xperia Z1 and now the last question in your mind will be about its launch date.

Sony is going to announce Xperia Z1 on September 4, 2013 which is 04-09-2013, in an event that will be live in Berlin, Germany.
